College of Aeronautics & Engineering

Kent State University's Aeronautics and Engineering Expo offered exciting and educational exhibits and activities for aviation fans of all ages. 

Kent State University has received a significant grant from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to create an initiative to bolster the workforce for aircraft pilots and unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) operators in Northeast Ohio.

Jason Lorenzon, J.D., assistant professor of aeronautics, recently joined the “Ray Horner Morning Show” on WAKR to talk about current pilot shortages and how air travelers can prepare for the busy holiday travel season.

SkyHack awards students more than $9,000 in prizes at the competition held Nov. 3-5, 2023, in the Design Innovation Hub.

Michael Gershe had a unique vantage point to capture Northeast Ohio's peak colors coming to life across the Kent Campus. He shared these great shots with Kent State Today.

Kent State University student group Women in Aviation served as hosts for Girls in Aviation Day at the Kent State Airport. The young participants had the chance to fly drones, try out a flight simulator and do a pre-flight check inside a real plane.

A positive outlook and a love of flying keep this student pilot soaring toward his career goals. 

Kent State’s College of Aeronautics and Engineering opened a new building expansion this fall after a record-breaking enrollment year for the flight school. WFMJ recently produced two segments about the school's record enrollment and what it means for the industry.

The College of Aeronautics and Engineering is growing and its building's new, state-of-the-art expansion is welcoming students for Fall Semester classes.
